Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Accepted Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Marc Recht (marc) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Disable POSIX for certain/older NetBSD versions Initial Comment: The attached patch we have in NetBSD's pkgsrc and disables _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED for NetBSD 1.5*, 1.6, 1.6.* and NetBSD(-current) NetBSD 1.6[A-S]. This are the versions prior _NETBSD_SOURCE. And without this change non-POSIX functions like eg. os.setgroups are unavailable. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v.

Committed as r52843 and r52844. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marc Recht (marc) Date: 2003-12-05 20:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=205 Indeed, tt does talk about future versions, but only of the maintenance branch. No interface changes will haben there. (Especially not wrt POSIX). These will happen with NetBSD 2.0 and are in NetBSD-current (1.6[A-Z]*) right now. (So, actually 1.6A is "newer" than 1.6.*) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2003-12-05 20:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Doesn't 1.6.* talk about future versions? It should not do that, instead, it should explicitly list all versions to which the patch applies. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=854796&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
